  3. Step 3 Choose the block and the mouza

    Pick the Block the same way, then the Mouza. Each mouza is listed with its JL number first, such as “002 · Harispur”, so you can type either the name or the JL number. If two mouzas have the same name, go by the JL number.

    District, block and mouza selected: Purba Bardhaman, Aushgram-II, 002 Harispur

  4. Step 4 Enter the khatian or plot number

    Under Search by, choose Khatian or Plot and type the number. If the number has a second part after a slash, such as 289/1, put that part in Bata No. Leave Khatian type as Normal unless the land is leasehold, and choose English or Bengali as the Record language.

  6. Step 6 Confirm you are a person, or log in if asked

    On your first search of a visit, a small box appears at the bottom right. Tick Verify you are human and the search continues by itself. If a login window opens instead, sign in with your own Banglarbhumi user ID, password, captcha and the OTP sent to your mobile.

  7. Step 7 Read the record

    The record appears below the form. A plot search shows the land class and total area first, then each khatian that holds a share of the plot with the owner's name, share and area. A khatian search shows the owner and every plot in that khatian. The screenshot shows a sample record with invented names.

After you get the result

Common questions

The search says no record found. What should I check?

Check the mouza and its JL number first; most failed searches are in the wrong mouza. Then check that you chose Plot or Khatian correctly, and that an old RS number has been converted to its LR number.

Do I have to log in to search?

Not always. Some searches run without a login after the human check. When a login is needed, the login window opens and you sign in with your own Banglarbhumi account.

Can I do this on a mobile phone?

Yes. The steps are the same; the fields are stacked one below the other and the lists open as a full-width sheet.
